  1. That is just base car. We get 12% off RRP with FPV's and euro built cars We only get that crazy 25% Aussie Ford built vehicles. The best savings are going to happen if you buy a car the dealership has in stock.
  2. Ok I got a price a couple of days ago. Brand new 09 build. Built. No demo 58k drive away. that's with my staff discount.
  3. Ford staff get 24.5% off RRP However on FPV's and cars that a euro build you only get 12%.
  4. Also with this whole " in my dad's business sh*t" The process is so long winded it isn't funny. You have to have letters from ex about of mount of people to back up your claim. Plus I've herd they even send a Vic road rep on site too They will only give it out if there is no one else to drive theses vehicles full stop. Alot of guys doing apprenticeships at caryards try to get it and they can't even. I tryed back when I was 18. All you needed was a letter and a ABN number. Hence you used to see alot of 4 year apprentice driving around in new SS utes.
  5. The fact of the matter is you arn't legally able to drive a FPV on your P plates. The new P plate laws don't allow you to drive anything force induction/v8's. ( Red plates ) apart from like a smart car/volvo. Green P platers can drive high powered cars as long as its subject to 125kw per ton. If you have a smash in a FPV, which the insurance company knows you where driving it on your P's or the police are called and do a report you where driving it. YOU WON"T BE COVERED! If you have a minnor dint in the shopping center car park and say your dad was driving you will be fine. I admit its wrong. Insureance companys will still take your money and "Cover you" but your not covered. It's just a expensive gamble. Remeber its not illegal to own a FPV on your p's its just illegal to drive one. For all the insureance company knows you have the vehicle locked up in your garage or use it as a mock up drive-in in your TV room. that's why they get away with it. It's like if you had a smash if you where drink driving. The fact of the matter is if your not legally fit or not ment to be driving. Your not covered.
  6. The FG XR6 Turbo is a better car apart from the brakes.
  7. Guys, I need to confirm. BF R-SPEC F6 Trim. Are the side of the front and back seats and the center cushions brown in colour? Thank you A photo would be great thanks.

    Fpv Tours.

    No, they don't do them. They did them in the early days with the BA but due to OH&S They will just advise you of the yearly open day. P.S I've had a tour myself. hehe
  9. Ummm.....You guys no about shockwave don't uses? Lets just say, Don't go near a high presser car wash or gun of any kind.
  10. That's a fair call. Compared to what HSV give out and even BMW. But the fact is they don't have to give you a gift. Also don't even waste the phone call complaining. Nothing will get done.
  11. Geees, who was it that got you warranty on your turbo? even if you was trying to get 400 @ the fly. Did you get your car back? I'm working for Ford headoffice now. Looks like I'm buying a F6 too.
  12. What e-mail address you e-mailing?
  13. Firstly, you cant drive a xr6 turbo on your Green P plates because its over 125kw per ton. Red P platers can't drive anything turbocharged apart from some smart car or somthing. The list is on the Vic Road website. If you have a major smash. The insurance WON"T cover you because your not legally able to drive it. (that's if you get insurance) I drove a BA Typhoon back when I was 19, I kept getting fined for driving a vehcle over 125kw per ton back on just red plate days. There is a small chance you could get away with a stock ba/bf is a low key colour ( from cops) . However insurance factor again. I agree with you Fordrive1, However young p platers don't buy theses vehicles to take the turbo badge off. They buy theses cars for there mates and they want everyone to no its turbo at the local maccers hang out. If my statement wasn't true, Why would you risk it and why wouldnt they just buy a N/A XR6 The fact of the matter is your better off waiting for open season off your ps.
